The Chronoswiss Delphis Firestarter: A limited edition that dazzles in red

A Chronoswiss timepiece with a striking red color

If Santa were a watch enthusiast, he’d definitely love the red hues on the Chronoswiss Delphis Firestarter. It looks like something he’d wear with his red suit while delivering Christmas presents.

The new Chronoswiss watch comes with a beautiful and conspicuous red dial, highlighted by a guilloché pattern engraved on 18k white gold. Unlike other watches in the market, this model features a unique casing, manufactured from titanium. It has a drum-like shape, just like other Chronoswiss watches.

Thanks to the high-quality composite material, the casing complements other elements with its red accents. While the color might be easily mistaken for a coating, it is a blend of two different materials. Instead of using other materials while creating the casing, Chronoswiss opted for a well-polished red composite shell with a shiny appearance. All this was achieved through an industrial bonding process.

In terms of performance, the upper section of the dial has a semi-circular subdial for tracking time in minutes. At the heart of the watch, there’s a caliber C. 6004, which delivers a 55-hour power reserve.

Chronoswiss has always been quite popular for its remarkable and stylish timepieces. In 2023, the brand captured everyone’s attention with the Delphis collection, which created a smooth balance between elegance and horology. Chronographs with strong colors can leave a long-lasting impression—the Chronoswiss Delphis Firestarter is the latest addition to the Delphis collection and has the same attributes.

Designed to match other elements featured on the watch, the rubber strap is characterized by a red hue that blends with other components.

As a limited edition timepiece, only 50 pieces have been rolled out into the market, and each costs $43,578.

The Gentleman’s Guide to Wedding Attire
Wedding toast

As a menswear writer, I take pride in snazzy dressing. You can imagine my chagrin when I showed up to a recent wedding as the worst-dressed groomsman. It had been a perfect storm of sartorial mishaps. I’d slimmed down since the last time I wore black tie, leaving the jacket and cummerbund baggy. My favorite cuff links had vanished on a work trip. To complete the fiasco, my tuxedo shirt bore an archipelago of merlot stains from a Christmas party in late ’25.

Fortunately, I had the chance to salvage my dignity at another wedding a few weeks later. I rallied like Rocky. Rush alterations. New cuff links. A crisp Marcella shirt. Polished black shoes. I went from disheveled schlub to black-tie stud.

TAG Heuer just brought back its best Japanese racing collab
Watch, Dial, Logo

TAG Heuer just announced the second Carrera collaboration with Team Ikuzawa and Bamford Watch Department, three years after their first one together — and this time, they went back to a stopwatch.

The watch is built on TAG Heuer’s 39mm Carrera Glassbox, the modern take on the original 1963 Carrera that swaps a bezel for a highly domed sapphire crystal. But the design here pulls specifically from the Heuer Roadmaster, a vintage timing stopwatch Team Ikuzawa used trackside through the ’70s and ’80s, not from any particular car or race.

Gearheads and luxury car enthusiasts will be descending on Florida on February 19th through the 21st as the Cavallino Classic looks to return to Southern Florida for another edition.

We measure our programming by whether it gives Club members and resort guests something they cannot find anywhere else. Cavallino Classic does that. It is not only for collectors and enthusiasts.
